quote:

At last week’s rookie minicamp, Holsey was among a handful of players who stood out in particular to coach Jay Gruden.

On the first day of practice, after seeing Holsey compete in one-on-one drills, the coach started devoting extra attention to the 5-foot-10, 190-pound defensive back.

“He was down here with me on 1-on-1’s,” Holsey said. “And [he] told me yesterday I had a good day of one-on-ones and he was like, ‘I want you to go in here with these dogs [Saturday],’ and I said, ‘Coach, I’m not worried about that.’ So, he was down there with the one-on-ones and then we got to that team period and I seen [the pass], broke on it and he came to me and said, ‘You should’ve picked it.’ He’s a good dude. I enjoy being around him. It’s all fun and games right now.”

One of my favorites. He will always be one that I feel we al got robbed a bit due to his injuries, but he made the most of his time out here. Hope he has a healthy productive career in the League

It's easy to pull for a guy that has fought through as much adversity as Holsey has. From what I remember he and his mother were pretty key in his recruiting class too. I can't imagine why they seemed to be drawn towards her.
